“maybe we are struggling with semantics. I think there’ room between “so so” and “elite”.”

True enough. With over 2,000 institutions of higher learning, and no prescribed setup or standards, it is clear that there is much room for interpretation. Either way, referring to Texas and UIUC as merely so-so is misleading.
